“Damn it!” A woman’s voice came from the other end of the phone and she finally said, “Fine. Since


    that’s the case, we can just find another opportunity in the future. You can head home now. It’ll be


    difficult now that we’ve spooked them.”


    “Understood, miss!” The person hung up and drove away.


    Winnie smiled slightly and said to Severin, “What line of work are you in, handsome? Or are you the kid


    of some rich family?”


    Severin smiled lightly. “Me? I’m an unemployed wayfarer!”


    “You must be joking? Those clothes you’re wearing don’t seem cheap at all.”


    Winnie then brought Severin into the restaurant and said to him, “My two best friends are inside, along


    with some other good friends of mine. They all invited me out for dinner! I’m going to introduce you to


    them in a bit!”


    Severin smiled wryly. “There’s no need for that, is there? I’m just passing by. My destination is Lupool!”

    “Just passing by?” Winnie smiled and said, “Then it’s even more certain that our fate was written in the


    stars, Don’t you think it’s destiny that you happened to save me even though you were just passing


    by?”


    Winnie then paused and said, “Why don’t you leave your contact information with me? You can always


    look for me if you need my help in the future!”


    Severin felt bad to refuse the friendly gesture of such a beautiful woman. He nodded politely and then


    exchanged phone numbers with her. They had already arrived outside the VIP room by then.


    “What took you so long, Winnie?” A man stood up and asked Winnie when she opened the door and


    walked in with Severin.


    “Yeah, Winnie, didn’t you say long ago that you were leaving home already? Why did you only arrive


    now?” A woman asked her a simr question.


    After Severin went in, he nced at the people inside and saw five people-three women and two men.


    One of the women frowned and had a slightly odd expression.


    That woman finally smiled and said to Winnie, “You’rete, Winnie! Your punishment is to drink three


    more ssester!” Though her smile was pretty, Severin could sense a brief sh of reluctance from


    her smile.


    Severin then smirked, and he finally confirmed his suspicions. That Winnie would show up downstairs


    and get off from her ride was a fact that was probably known by the five of them who were present


    there. By that logic, the one who tried to kill Winnie must have been hired by one of them. Try as they


    may, it would have been difficult for that person to contain their expression when they saw Winnie


    showing up safely in the VIP room.


    Severin to tell who it was at a nce.


    “This is Shayna, this is Calvin, this is…” Winnie introduced Severin to all the people there.


    Severin frowned. Shayna was Winnie’s best friend, and they were remarkably close friends judging


    from the that Winnie introduced her. It was thus all the more puzzling as to why Shayna would want to


    harm Winnie!
